Yea one of the sellers told me in PM. How sad. Got mSATA = no mSATA cos we cannot tinker. Wth

ya, ade macam xde~~~

they force u to void the warranty so, they can save more in after sale service~~~lol~~

But for G55VW right can we opt for the SSD instead of the 1TB?

If can then I'll just use a HDD bay to replace the DVD and slot in another normal 2.5" HDD as slave HDD lol

2 non user accessible rams (they already put in the rams there) 4GB rams... so the 2 user accessible rams is still open for upgrade..

mSATA however, as u already know.. need to void warranty


really? OMG LA ASUS... if thats the case.. i might void the warranty once i check the laptop is running fine with everything

coz if i open i will directly change everything (change the damn rams, add msata, repaste thermal into IC diamond)

but then i will see have to see the blueprint of this laptop thoroughly first.. haha

Haven't seen any model that came in malaysia comes with SSD so far.. maybe if u deal with the reseller might be possible...

and regarding the HDD bay is really a good option but then to replace the DVD slot i think u have to disassemble the laptop to access the screw .. not so sure bout that... just based on my experience disassembling laptop.. lol

Ah cool. At least they go put the RAMs in non accessible ones (unless you dismantle)

How many G55VW users here btw?

yep.. and actually the rams they put in is 1600.. so add another 8gb 1600mhz ram will actually be good enough some of our friends here already did that..

u can check the first page of the post.. those are the owners of G55

Wow the soon to be owner list is...

Man this beast is hotcake really

yesterday saw kingston hyper x ram, 2x4gb 1600 ram, rm310....

planning wanna buy, but after think that the ori ram cannot cabut..... aiks....4get about it~~

really2 hot cake.. lol.. if only asus provide enough .. i think more ppl would be interested.. and they could actually gain more profit instead of getting negative comments and such.. lol.. i've waited since early may.. i think around 8th of may i place my order.. lol

lol will still run dual channel what coz the ram inside is also 1600 ram.. but then .. i know the feeling.. u wont be satisfied coz of the 2 damn ram that cannot be accessed ...

Wait so the internal ram is 2 x 4GB 1600?

Then if you slot in 1 x 8GB it won't run dual channel is it?

dun same mar.... if wana OC the ram , that is the other issue liao, hyper x ram come by heat sink..... the ori 1 dun have~~~

haha.. no nid OC ma.. is already a beast... if cannot tahan.. then just viod warranty.. haha

lol, after think back, G53SX is better, bcos can access all but cannot raid the drive n oc ram....

g53 = 2 hard drive slot .. that alone is alot better...

but everything has pro and cons.. lol g75 has almost all the feature for g53 and g55 but the price ...

ya~~thats y~~~


G55 should be improve that G53 dun have...., mana tau, they IMPROVE to 1 drivebay , and cannot access the another 2 slot of ram~~~ that's the thing that ASUS improve~~~WTH~~~

hahaha.... well what to do lo.. all of us already ordered this faster breast.. so have to deal with the msata n 2 damn rams (non accessible)

i actually not bothered with the 1 drive bay + msata... but what i cannot comprehend is the non accessible part.. that and the asus does not provide the service to add for u.. i think only asus malaysia doesn't provide the serivce...every other country have that.. maybe singapore have that service?

Wow congrats!
